Barcelona president Joan Laporta has reiterated that he wants Frenkie de Jong to stay at the Spanish club - but the Dutchman must be prepared to accept a pay cut.
De Jong has been Manchester United's number one target all summer, with Erik ten Hag keen to link-up with the midfielder he coached during their time together at Ajax. Chelsea have also been linked with the Dutch star, too.
A fee between the Red Devils and Barcelona has been agreed, with United set to pay an initial £63million for the 25-year-old to bring him to Old Trafford.
